I've used assistant as custom help viewer when i was developing the code.But when i deployed the application in another system , there should be assistant present in that system. If it is not present how can the help work in the deployed application? Should i copy the assistant to the deployed system and all the library files along with it or is there any other way.
Re: Help in the executable
You have to copy assistant and its dependencies to the target system.
Re: Help in the executable
Thanks for the reply, could you please let me know where to copy the assistant? If I include the dependencies in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH will it suffice?
Re: Help in the executable
use ldd to find assistant dependencies, then copy all libraries in the same directory where you copy the executable. it's the same you do with your executable
Re: Help in the executable
The assistant is dependent on many of the same Qt libs your program is. If you put them in the same place as your deployed application finds them then they should be found when you launch assistant from inside your app. If you want to launch assistant from outside you app then use the same launch wrapper script.
